1 Korean J. Syst. Zool. Vol. 26, No. 2: 5-40, July 200 Fauna of Non-biting Midges (Diptera, hironomidae) from Soyang River in huncheon-si, Gangwon-do, Korea Han-Il Ree and Kyoung Yong Jeong 2, * Department of Environmental Medical iology, and Institute of Tropical Medicine, Yonsei University ollege of Medicine, Seoul , Korea 2 Department of Internal Medicine and Institute of llergy, Yonsei University ollege of Medicine, Seoul , Korea STRT dults of hironomidae were collected at Soyang river sites in huncheon-si, Gangwon-do on ugust and 4 September in 2008, and May in total of 794 adults were collected, consisting of 52 species, 23 genera, 4 subfamilies. mong them, 7 species were recorded in Korea for the first time, and 9 species were new to science. These 7 previously unrecorded and 9 new species are described with illustrations. Eight species still have not been identified. The subfamily Prodiamesinae and four genera: Demicryptochironomus, Parakiefferiella, Psectrocladius and Monodiamesa are the first record in Korea. Tanytarsus seohyoni n. sp. was the most dominant species, consisting of 24.6% of the total samples. Keywords: Fauna, hironomidae, huncheon-si, new species, taxonomy INTRODUTION Non-biting midges live under the running or standing waters during egg, larva and pupa stage, and adult midges on earth for 2-7 days. Sometimes enormous amount of midges appear in areas close to human dwellings (Ree and Yum, 2006). dult midges are attracted to light at night and cause serious nuisance to normal human activities. Furthermore, dead bodies of ephemeral midges can cause allergic disorders to the genetically predisposed individuals (Kay et al., 978; Jeong et al., 2004). Non-biting midges are one of the most abundant and frequently encountered insects in Korea. Ninetyfour species have been described in Korea (Ree and Kim, 98; Ree, 2009a, b), although at least several hundreds of species are expected to be found. large number of non-biting midges emerges throughout season (May-September) from the Soyang river which runs through Sinsau-dong, huncheon-si, where about 262,000 people live. These midges are regarded as one of the annoying insects in summer nights. In this study, taxonomical study of non-biting midges emerging from Soyang river in huncheon city was carried out. MTERILS ND METHODS hironomid adults attracted to lights of stores and restaurants *To whom correspondence should be addressed Tel: , Fax: para@yuhs.ac located close to Soyang river which runs through Sinsaudong, huncheon-si, Gangwon-do were aspirated for 2-3 hours after sunset on ugust and September 9, 2008, and May, 2009, and kept in 75% ethanol. Meadows are developed along with the riverside and sports facilities for the publics are located at the river bank. Many restaurants with good river-view are located in streets around Soyang bridge (397 m). ll midges were dissected into the antennae, head, wings, abdomen and hypopygium by using fine needles under stereomicroscope and mounted on Hoyer s solution. The type specimens of the new species are deposited in the collection of rthropods of Medical Importance Resource ank, Department of Environmental medical iology, Yonsei Univeristy, Seoul, Korea. RESULTS Faua of hironomidae total of 794 hironomid adults were collected during the study period. They were identified as 4 subfamilies, 23 genera, 52 species (Table ). mong 52 species, 7 species are recorded for the first time in Korea, and 9 species are new to science. Eight species have not yet been identified to species due to lack of references. Tanytarsus seohyoni n. sp. was the most dominant species in the study area, consisting of 24.6% of the total samples, followed by Tanytarsus akantertius Sasa and Kamimura (7.6%), Paracladopelma camptolabis (Kieffer)

Gonocoxite well developed, inner lobe (inferior volsella) somewhat triangular, with many setae along inner margin. Gonostylus almost straight internally, with moderately developed apical spur (megaseta). Remarks. This new species is closely related to Psectrocladius aquatronus Sasa reported in Japan (Sasa, 979). However it differs in having smaller body size (.6 mm versus mm of wing length), shorter R (.5 vs.7-2.), and the different shape of gonostylus. The gonostylus of the former is almost parallel-sided, scaresely expanded apically, whereas that of the later is hinese spoon-shaped, prominently expanded towards apex. The genus Psectrocladius is the first report in Korea. 3 *Subfamily Prodiamesinae Saether 4 *Genus Monodiamesa Kieffer 5 *Monodiamesa bathyphila (Kieffer, 98) (Fig. 6) Prodiamesa (Monodiamesa) bathyphila Kieffer, 98, p. 7; Tokunaga, 936, p Monodiamesa bathyphila: Pinder, 978, p. 45; Sasa and Kawai, 987, p. 54.
